God is a God of forgiveness. He loves to forgive those who come to Him and seek it. If He was not forgiving, no human would ever be accepted by Him for all of us are sinners: “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).

To show how much He is willing to forgive, and to show the greatness of His love, His own Son went to Calvary for us. He is willing to forgive and forget our sin if we show repentance. Repentance is simply having a change of mind toward sin and being willing to go God’s way. The type of sin does not matter.

The above verse says that God will do this “that thou mayest be feared.” This means respected and obeyed. If He were harsh and unforgiving, we could not love Him – because our failures would only bring judgment and damnation – “who shall stand?”

Sometimes, after being forgiven, we need to wait for His blessing and felt presence. If there is sin between you and God, remember His promise: “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (I John 1:9).

Christian, if you need to restore your relationship with the King of kings, come to Him today and get the forgiveness you need, and enjoy the fellowship with Him again. Wait no longer.
